详细描述
Tuberculosis (TB) is the world's biggest killer among infectious diseases, claiming more than 4000 lives each day. The unprecedented coronavirus pandemic seriously impacts people with pre-existing health conditions. People who have TB are usually more vulnerable to other infections, including the novel coronavirus, due to pre-existing lung damage. They are at a higher risk of developing complications from COVID-19. Certain populations are at greater risk of TB, because of where they live, where they work or because of other socio-economic factors which result in them experiencing barriers to accessing health services.
